Blogs are great for sources of information which can be used for business, pleasure or academically. Applications such as Blogger can be used as a clever marketing tool for businesses; it can drive traffic towards their website and reach new readers. It’s a great way to get feedback on an idea that they might want to develop further. Having an outside perspective and a little constructive criticism is invaluable for business, especially when it’s free! Applications such as Blogger is a great contribution to the world of business, pleasure and education as it can be used any place, any time and it can also boost income, which is always a bonus!

Youtube is a useful tool for learning how to do different things. It is beneficial for certain teachings but I wouldn't recommend it for learning principles but step by step tasks are nice for visual learners.
Twitter can be useful to find opinions on certain topics or big events. However, I find that it is better used for personal reasons like getting in contact with a friend or finding jokes about school or getting updates on a game. I found it useful to choose a profile and check out the articles and information that one page posted. (Beth)
Google docs is convenient when it comes to working collaboratively but not physically being together. Before google docs, for groups to work together that couldn’t meet up they would have to email the file, edit, save and pass on. Google docs is much simpler and saves all those steps. Even when not working in groups, google docs is convenient to use if on a public computer, the only risk is the internet might be down. (Beth)
